Recent advancements in the domain of text-to-image synthesis have culminated in a multitude of enhancements pertaining to quality, fidelity, and diversity. Contemporary techniques enable the generation of highly intricate visuals which rapidly approach near-photorealistic quality. Nevertheless, as progress is achieved, the complexity of these methodologies increases, consequently intensifying the comprehension barrier between individuals within the field and those external to it. In an endeavor to mitigate this disparity, we propose a streamlined approach for text-to-image generation, which encompasses both the training paradigm and the sampling process. Despite its remarkable simplicity, our method yields aesthetically pleasing images with few sampling iterations, allows for intriguing ways for conditioning the model, and imparts advantages absent in state-of-the-art techniques. To demonstrate the efficacy of this approach in achieving outcomes comparable to existing works, we have trained a one-billion parameter text-conditional model, which we refer to as "Paella". In the interest of fostering future exploration in this field, we have made our source code and models publicly accessible for the research community.

Repository list and official/mentioned flags are the archive's, frozen 2025-07-28. Reachability, where shown, is from one Syntology probe window (2026-09-16 to 2026-09-18); repositories not probed show nothing. GitHub stars are not tracked.

Licence: 0 of the 3 samples are pointer only, meaning Syntology does not serve that copy's text. This page shows no code text for any sample; each one links to its file in the repository.

Harvested from dome272/paella. “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized input. It does not mean the output is correct, and nothing here reproduces the paper's results. “Honoured” and “violated” refer to a contract Syntology drafted from the code itself; “our draft was wrong” and “fixture could not drive it” are failures of Syntology's instrument, not of the code.

Each sample ends with its code_sha256, Syntology's identity for that exact code. An agent fetches the stored sample with Syntology's MCP tool get_code(code_sha256="…") (how to connect); click an identity to copy that call.

Repository labels, per sample. official repository: The archive marks this repository official for the paper. named in the paper: The archive records that the paper mentions this repository; it is not marked official. community (archive-listed): In the archive's code links for this paper, not marked official and not recorded as mentioned in the paper. found in paper text by Syntology: Syntology found this repository in the paper's own text; whether it is the authors' implementation is not asserted. community: Not in the archive's code links for this paper; a community repository Syntology harvested. Samples from a repository marked official are listed first. Licence labels name the repository's licence as recorded at harvest. “Pointer only” means Syntology does not serve that copy's text, for one of four reasons: no licence file was found; the licence was not identified; the licence is recorded as permissive but that copy's record is not marked cleared; or the licence is outside the permissive list Syntology serves text under (MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD and similar). Some licences outside that list permit redistribution, such as WTFPL, and GPL-3.0 under its conditions; they are simply not on the list. Hover a licence label for the reason. File links open the file on GitHub at the default branch, which may have changed since the harvest.
